THE Cheshire branch of the Campaign to Protect Rural England has awarded a ‘Buy Local’ accolade to Whatcroft’s River Organic farm in Northwich.
The award was presented by the CPRE’s North West regional chairman Nick Thompson at a food celebration event in Knutsford.
Simon Bennett runs the organic farm, called Shipbrook Hill Farm, which also has a shop, cafe, nature walks and invites schools and other groups to book visits.
He is also running the Whatfest music festival on the farm later this month.
